the list.
Just want to make clear that I had answered the offlist question immediately,
several hours before Daniel asked the same question again on this list. My
answer even included an apology. So I hope you understand why -- after Daniel
pretended not to have received my reply and asked me the same question again
on this list -- I got the impression he wanted to annoy me.
My original offlist email to you was made quickly and thus may not have been as clear as
it should
have been. I apologize if that is the case. I also want to be clear that I think your use
of
Wikipedia content is absolutely wonderful. The only issues I had pertained to the use of
the
trademark that went well-beyond giving credit. All the major issues and most of the minor
ones now
seem to be moot due to your quick changes - at least as far as the webpage is concerned. I
still
have not heard whether or not the logo that appears to be on a splash/intro screen on the
iPod has
been removed (IANAL, but if images are allowed in articles on the iPod, then, of course,
the logo
would be fair use in the article about Wikipedia ; but fair use would not apply to use on
an
intro/loading/splash screen).
Our legal officer will have a standard trademark and logo use agreement ready in a while
though.
